Tony..The dealerships are typically the most expensive place to have work
done in my experience...An independent shop should be the better spot...I
would say Craig is right at about 3 hrs labor is the norm plus parts.
Remember these creatures are getting old and some of the stuff like backing
plates just plain wear out...

Subject: is there a resource to find out cost of labor?

Hello folks,

I wondered if there is there is a cost of labor scheme that I could look at
for potential repairs.
For instance, I took the Vanagon to my local dealership for a brake job all
around.
I need to know what is the estimated amount of hours for a job like this?

Thank you,
Tony
